Chapter 678: Mysterious Underground Palace
"Boom!"
The entire Spell Island was shaking, a large amount of volcanic ash was thrown into the air several kilometers high, the sunlight was blocked, and some people who were looking for treasures on the island immediately stopped and looked in the direction of the volcanic belt.
Under the cliff to the west of Spell Island, Li Yuanlong had just found a relatively rare treasure, but at this time, the light in the sky suddenly dimmed, and there was a rustling sound.
"What's going on? Was it a volcanic eruption? The woman in Li Yuanlong's team showed a puzzled expression, and then touched her shoulder, only to see a large amount of black-brown dust falling from the sky, and when she pinched it, she saw that it was all volcanic ash.
"I feel a very powerful elemental vibration in the air, probably caused by man." The man holding the sword said coldly.
"Artificial? Not that exaggerated, right? Are you mistaken, this kind of Cheng dΓΉ is almost to the Cheng dΓΉ of the forbidden spell. Lu Zhishen-like big man hummed.
"Don't mind other people's business, we concentrate on continuing to collect treasures." Li Yuanlong had already withdrawn his gaze at some point, and then walked deeper under the cliff alone.
At the same time, deep in the forest to the south.
A group of three people were standing under a tree to avoid the volcanic ash falling from the sky, the leader of these three was a young man of the Huaxia tribe, and the other two were a tiger clan man and a human race old man.
The Huaxia man also felt the elemental shock coming from the air, and a look of shock flashed on his face, and he muttered, "Has anyone used ninth-level fire magic on this island?" β
The old man of the human race was dressed as a magician, and when he heard the words of the man of the Huaxia clan, he immediately squatted down and grabbed a handful of volcanic ash that fell to the ground. Then put it under the nose and smell it.
Half ringing. The old man of the Terran clan opened his eyes and said, "Although it contains a very strong fire element. However, according to the arrangement of the elements remaining on it, it doesn't look like it's caused by magic, but it's similar to a martial art that uses fighting energy to pull the power of the elements. β
"Martial arts?" When the big man of the Tiger Clan heard the old man of the Terran Race, he immediately skimmed and said, "Dead old man, don't think that I don't understand anything, how can martial arts make such a big movement?" β
The old man of the human race touched the sheep's beard on his chin and smiled: "The power of martial arts is indeed not as exaggerated as magic, but it is rumored that Cheng DΓΉ, who has reached the god-level powerhouse, also has the power of moving mountains and seas like a magic forbidden spell." β
"God-level powerhouse?" The Huaxia man listened from the side. couldn't help but cry out, and asked urgently: "Mr. Hemings, do you think that there are god-level powerhouses on this island?" β
The old man of the human race touched his beard and nodded, "I can't rule out this possibility." β
The tiger clan's big man's face suddenly became gloomy, and he said in a low voice: "If there are really god-level powerhouses participating in this Zhenlong Conference, then with the strength of the two of us, I am afraid it is impossible to win, Brother Pastor Li, it seems that you invited us back this time in vain." β
It turned out that this tiger clan big man and the human race old man were the two masters invited back from Xi Penglai in Li Yinong's mouth. Their strength has reached the pinnacle of the king level, according to the system level. It's almost level 89, level 90, and it's only one step away from level 91 of the god-level realm.
If it weren't for Ruan Chi's cunzΓ i, the two of them would indeed be qualified to win the victory of this Zhenlong Conference and help the people of Xi Penglai get the position of patriarch.
When the Huaxia man, Pastor Li, heard this, he hurriedly said to the Tiger Clan: "Totu, it's too early for you to give up now, right?" It's also a shame that you are a disciple of the Eight Beast Divine Generals of the Orc Clan. β
The tiger clan man said expressionlessly: "Pastor, it is because I am a brother with you that I am not afraid of your jokes, to be honest, the god-level powerhouse and our king-level realm are fundamentally people from two worlds, if there is really a god-level master on the side of Dongpenglai, even if there are a few more people like me on our side, it will be in vain." β
The old man of the human race also nodded, and said with a look of yearning in his eyes: "Totu is right, the god-level realm is indeed an inhuman mirror, just like me, I am almost 140 years old this year, but do you know?" I have been at the peak of the king level for almost 60 years, and I haven't even touched the threshold of the god level so far. β
Of course, Pastor Li knew the horror of the god-level realm, but he couldn't give up so lightly, for the sake of this Zhenlong Conference, he specially invited the two people in front of him over, how could he admit defeat without even meeting the opponent.
"Mr. Hemmings, you just said that the other party may be a god-level powerhouse, in other words, it is just 'maybe', right?" Pastor Li asked at the Terran elders.
"It's really just 'maybe', not 100%, in fact, an explosion of the scale just now, using some kind of magic prop, can probably be made." The old man of the human race touched his chin and groaned.
"In that case, I am willing to increase the remuneration by 50% on the previous promised payment, as long as the two of you find a way to help us Xipenglai get the position of patriarch."
"Remuneration is not a problem, the problem is that if the other party is a god-level powerhouse, it will be troublesome." The tiger clan man scolded.
Pastor Li sneered: "Totu, let's just assume that the opponent is a god-level powerhouse, but don't forget that the Zhenlong Conference of our Huaxia clan is not only a competition of force, you use your brain to think about it, if we can find a way to get the guy who may be a god-level powerhouse out of the game in advance, what do you think is the chance that the two of you will win in the next Linglong martial arts fight." β
When the Tiger Clan man heard Pastor Li's words, he immediately said proudly: "To be honest, before landing on the island, I had secretly observed all the contestants, including all of you Xipenglai, and none of them could beat me. β
Pastor Li smiled with satisfaction, although the tiger clan's big man's brain was not bright, but there was no problem in terms of strength.
The old man of the human race also echoed at this time: "If we can find a way to let that guy who may be a god-level powerhouse out, it will indeed be beneficial to us." β
Pastor Li motioned for the two of them to bring their ears closer, and then whispered, "The rule of treasure hunting is to collect the treasures on this island, as long as we find those treasures as much as possible, and then ......"
The tiger clan big man and the human race old man listened carefully, showing a sudden look from time to time.
β¦β¦
The camera returns to Ruan Chi, who is standing on a charred black ground. It turned out that the volcano had almost been bulldozed. Centered around him, it has now become a basin-like place.
System: You successfully killed the Fire Monster. Earn 349194 XP.
System: You successfully kill the Fire Monster and gain 349194 XP.
β¦β¦
Turning off these kill prompts, Ruan Chi touched his chin and smiled, "That's right, the effect of the Fire Dragon Red Lotus and the Tiger Bite has directly amplified the power of the skill of the Flame Nine-Headed Dragon Array by more than two times, almost a rhythm of seconds." β
After killing dozens of level 90 high-level monsters, Ruan Chi opened the system backpack, which contained a lot of loot. In addition to some enhancement gems, there are more than a dozen pieces of equipment, three of which are of Golden Supreme quality.
But unfortunately, all of these equipment are French systems, and Ruan Chi can't use them.
After standing for a while, Auf and Mahe, who had been hiding far away, finally ran back, and they were all relieved to see that Ruan Chi was fine, after all, the explosion just now was quite scary, and even half of the volcano was blown up.
"Big brother." Auf ran in front of Ruan Chi in a huff. As for Mahe, he followed behind, and at this time, Mahe's eyes looking at Ruan Chi were no longer the same. It's really full of awe.
"Yo, you're here." Ruan Chi waved at the two of them, then pointed in one direction, "I seem to have found something interesting." β
Auf and Maher looked in the direction that Ruan Chi was pointing, and saw that under the half-collapsed volcano, there was also a huge entrance, and there was an obviously artificially hewn stone staircase down this entrance, which felt as if it could lead to the underground world.
This entrance was discovered by Ruan Chi after blowing up half of the volcano just now, according to the map, the stone spirit should be in the underground world, Ruan Chi wants to go down and take a look now.
"I'm going to go inside, and if you're afraid of danger, you can stay here." Ruan Chi continued.
Aufu hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, since you are going to go, big brother, I will also go, but I am afraid that my strength is insufficient and I will drag you down big brother." β
"It's okay, I can protect you." Ruan Chi joked.
As for Maher, he was a little hesitant when he saw the entrance, he had been injured when he fought the fire monster just now, and if he walked inside, he was afraid that he would encounter even more dangerous monsters.
Just when Mach hesitated, Auf suddenly patted him on the shoulder and said, "Mahe, your injuries are relatively serious, so let's stay outside and wait, in case anyone else approaches here." β
When Maher heard this, he knew that Auf was giving him a chance to go down the steps, so he nodded movingly and said, "I understand, regimental commander, I'll stay here." β
Ruan Chi had already walked in the direction of the entrance, and Auf also trotted up after saying to Maher.
The two of them walked one after the other in front of the entrance, and through the stone staircase in guΓ², they could see a pitch-black underground world, the stone staircase was deep and narrow, and it was impossible to see where it led.
But the most interesting thing is that on both sides of the stone staircase, there are two broken stone pillars, and the surface of the stone pillars is carved with lifelike totems.
Auf glanced at the totem on the stone pillar, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled: "Didn't Yi Nong say that this Spell Island is an uninhabited island?" Why is there such an artificial structure? And the style of this totem seems to be also of the Chinese people. β
Hearing Aufu's words, Ruan Chi carefully paid attention to the totem pattern on it, and really found that its style was similar to the architectural style seen on Penglai, and it could even be said to be exactly the same.
"It feels like there's going to be a lot of fun stuff in there."
Ruan Chi touched his chin and immediately walked down the stone stairs, and when Aufu saw this, he quickly withdrew his gaze, cautiously followed Ruan Chi, and at the same time took out the props for lighting and lit them.
System: You discovered the group quest "Mysterious Dungeon".
System: You have triggered the group quest "Forgotten Corner", the difficulty of the quest is S, please go deep into the fifth floor of the mysterious dungeon and find the Forsaken "Ebberson".
Mission Success - Gain 120,000,000 XP and 25,000 World Fame.
Mission Failed - None.
"There are still living people in the depths of this dungeon?" Seeing the task, Ruan Chi subconsciously spoke. The mission asked him to find a guy named Ebson the Forsaken, which sounded like a human name.
Auf couldn't see the mission information popping up from the system, and when he heard Ruan Chi's words, he was a little puzzled and asked, "Big brother, what did you just say, you said that there are living people in this place?" β
Ruan Chi didn't know how to explain, so he had to say: "Oh, I just guessed casually, and I don't know if it's really someone." β
Auf: "......"
Since this group dungeon also triggered an S-class mission, Ruan Chi didn't dare to be careless at the moment, and opened the Hall of Glory as he walked, and bought some buffs in it for self-defense.
System: You use a level 3 Fitness Talisman that increases your maximum health by 30% for 60 minutes.
System: You use a level 3 vajra charm that increases physical attack by 20% for 60 minutes.
System: You use a level 3 supremacy charm that increases physical defense by 15% and magic resistance by 10% for 60 minutes.
β¦β¦
In a good state, Ruan Chi's attributes increased slightly.
"By the way, there is still an experience charm, and the strange experience points here are so high, you can't give up this opportunity to level up." Ruan Chi suddenly slapped his head, and something sounded.
System: You use a 6x XP charm to gain 6x XP for 60 minutes.
This is the experience item with the greatest experience effect that Ruan Chi can buy in the Hall of Glory, worth 1500 points of world prestige, and Ruan Chi will never use it in normal times.
"It's on!" Ruan Chi shouted excitedly, and then sped up, according to the map display, the monster called the stone spirit was in front.
Auf was still carefully observing the environment of the stone staircase, but Ruan Chi suddenly ran, and he had to run along, and shouted at the same time: "Big brother, have you found out?" β
"Go a little further down, there will probably be a monster called the stone spirit, you should be careful for a while." Ruan Chi admonished as he ran.
Hearing this, Aofu's expression froze for a moment, and then he followed closely behind Ruan Chi with a solemn expression.
About ten minutes later.
Ruan Chi and Ao Fu finally ran to the end of the stone staircase, no wonder the name of this copy is called the Mysterious Dungeon, and the bottom of the stone staircase is really an underground palace.
No, it's not entirely right to say that the palace is not exactly, it should be more appropriate to describe it as a labyrinth, because when Ruan Chi ran to the bottom, there were more than a dozen forks in a circular hall in front of him, and behind each fork was a deep passage, which felt like it was extending in all directions.
Before Ruan Chi could choose the passage to walk in, his eyes were quickly attracted by the two black shadows wandering in the middle of the hall.
"Yes...... The kind of monster that killed Perrault and Casey? Auf saw the two wandering black shadows and couldn't help but cry out. (To be continued......)
